I'm that devastated, shocked, panicked and anxious that I don't even know if this is posted in the right place and if this thread will
Make any sense at all. I've just had news from my employer that I am being made redundant in 1 weeks' time. I don't know what to do. We have a 2 year old toddler and I'm currently 14 weeks pregnant. This was so unexpected and happened so fast, no notice, nothing. My DH has always been the higher earner and is currently on £35K and I was on £21K. We're going to be losing out on an entire salary of about £1,450 (roughly) per month and we still have some debt that we are paying off monthly, about £300pm. We just can't afford me not bringing money in . Due to his salary being £35K, we are not entitled to any help from the government. I've spoken to some recruiters but they said that not many companies are recruiting for roles that I do and with me being pregnant, I doubt I would get anything anyway right now with so much competition. I am strongly against abortions and it's not something I would ever do. We have some money saved to probably get us through for about 2-3 months. I just don't know what we're going to do. I know this might not make much sense, I'm a mess.
